A woman found herself in a sticky situation after going to the restroom at The Home Depot store at Banks Crossing last week.

Someone had apparently put glue on all of the toilet seats in the women’s restroom and she didn’t realize it until she became stuck on the seat. Emergency medical services personnel were called to the store to help remove the woman from the toilet seat, according to an incident report filed at the Banks County Sheriff’s Office.

The woman had to be taken to a Gainesville hospital for treatment.

The manger of the store found a brown paper sack in the restroom that contained a bottle of Loctite GO2 glue.

The manager also noted that all of the toilet seats had a glue-like substance on them. Three toilet seats were damaged with a total value of $60.

Hope she sews the fool out of them for embarrassment and defamation of character.
The Home Depot cares more about their customers then they do their associates and they will believe the customer over the associate. If the associate is right about something and the customer is telling a lie, the management will believe the customer and fire the associate involved.
I know it happened to me while working at Commerce Home Depot. Hope the ladies sews the crap out of them

I doubt she will have enough thread to sew all the crap out of Home Depot.

Actually I find myself wondering now: what kind of needle would one use to see the crap out of someone (or something)? For example, would such a task require an appliqué needle, or would a crewel needle be more suited to the task?

From the sound of your ignorance and the fact that you cannot use proper English, I can see why you got fired. I hope the lady does sue Home Depot for the simple fact they cannot go back and look at security cameras to determine who glued the seats is beyond me. I feel bad for her. I hope she recovers.

There's as much evidence that a customer did this, than an employee of Home Depot did it - namely, no evidence on this point at all.

With zero information on whether a customer did it (which is true from the information of this news article), what is the reason to sue Home Depot? Why? simply because somebody wants / needs money and, well, Home Depot is standing nearby, and has some money? Sounds like you vote for democrats.

By the way, "embarrassment" is no legal basis for suing anyone. Nor does "defamation" have anything to do with what happened here, by any stretch of the imagination (resolved by a simple look at the dictionary). Nor does Home Depot have anything to do with what happened to this woman. What would stop the exact same act from being perpetrated in *any* store that possesses restrooms?

What happened to this woman is terrible, but you can't just make the nearest person(s) with money cough up their property for their misfortune. That would be one injustice traded for another.

Sorry, this hit a nerve because it relates too how much our now "eat-the-rich" society has decayed.

Butch,
I am with you 110 per cent on this. I am not a "sue 'em" kinda guy at all. But for this incident that caused this woman untold embarassment and physical injury to be taken as a juvenile joke is beyond the pale. Sue the socks off of them. (How very clever of Home Depot to tell the cost of the toilets.) Sue them
for pain & suffering and, if possible, for just being total jerks!

Where did you see that there was an associate involved in casting doubt on the woman's misfortune? I have read the article twice and find nothing of the sort stated there and I believe you meant "sues", not "sews". I believe she would have a difficult time sewing a company-she might sew a dress or a pair of pants, but not Home Depot.

Butch... the $&@* are you talking about? How does any of your screed relate to the story? Sounds like you're trolling every Home Depot story you can find to bitch about getting fired over an argument with a customer.

Seriously.

As to this woman, in these times, who sits on a public toilet seat without AT LEAST wiping it with some tissue first? I'm guessing she did it herself hoping for a quick payday before the holidays.

Security cameras might show where she picked up the glue, but most likely she carried it in with her (in that brown paper bag).

Sounds like you really like to sew! Do you make your own clothes? Do you knit too? And what does putting glue onto a toilet seat have to do with defamation of character? Pain and suffering? Maybe. Defamation of character? Not. Not that I advocate slathering superglue on a toilet seat.

Who in their right mind would sit on the toilet in a public restroom without a seat cover??? Any one with half a brain would AT LEAST look at the seat to make sure it was dry. She probably did it to herself so that she could sue Home Depot.

This has happened before... don't recall the details, but it was at-least 5 yrs ago. Same question comes to mind again: if there was enough glue on the seat to stick someone to it, it was obviously wet... Who sits on a wet toilet seat, especially in a public restroom ?

Hey Butch... the correct spelling for sews is sues. Go back to school and learn to spell. You might get a better job. I doubt their employees had anything to do with that. Someone with hateful thoughts or thinking it would be funny probably did it. Employees are not going to monitor someone's doings in a bathroom stall. It's not an offense that you can sue for unless there was intent or they can prove who did it. Who I feel sorry for is the woman who suffered from a sick prank. Hope she recovers.

And obviously the news reporter as well and anyone here hasn't tried that go2Glue yet.

It's crap! Pun intended!

it never ever gets hard, take just as long as a regular wood like elmers glue to fully dry. and in no way would she get stuck on the seat even if she stayed there for hours.

Now if they used any of the other loctite glues, that are like "Crazy Glue" then this of course could happen.

But This lady must have hygiene that I wouldn't want to be anywhere near too.

The G02Glue is thick, Think 1/2 way between a silocone sealant caulking gun stiffness, and regular wood glue for it's consistency. mmmm maybe like mayonaise. semi clear, very shiny.

and crazy glue can be from a liquid like water, to a gel also with similar thicknesses.

Now if there was enough glue to stick her ass to the seat. does this mean she routinely sits on a toilet seat thats all full of piss? I mean it would be either smooth but still wet and shiny, or lumpy with ribbons of the thicker glues.

Well, like that lying gay waitress, I bet the woman did this to herself for attention and possible lawsuit profit. Loctite GO2 glue will dry out fast. Faster than a woman yanking her panties down to squat and pee. Yes, that fast.
